Set Fire To The Rain Chords by Adele

 

[Intro]

Am  C  G  Dm

 

[Verse 1]

          Am      C

I let it fall, my heart

           G                    Dm

And as it fell, you rose to claim it

        Am            C

It was dark and I was over

           G                     Dm

Until you kissed my lips and you saved me

    Am             C

My hands, they're strong

        G                  Dm

but my knees were far too weak

     Am           C

To stand in your arms 

         G               G

without falling to your feet

 

[Pre-chorus]

               F                 Dm

But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew

          Am                          Am

All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true

         F                          G

And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win

 

[Chorus]

           Am          Am/B  Am

But I set fire to the rain

            G                     G/A  G

Watched it pour as I touched your face

         Dm

Well, it burned while I cried

          Dm        F                Am    G

'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name

 

[Verse 2]

        Am       C

When I lay with you

          G           Dm

I could stay there, close my eyes

          Am     C

feel you here forever

        G                        G

You and me together, nothing is better

 

[Pre-chorus]

                  F                 Dm

'Cause there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew

        Am                          Am

All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true

        F                           G

And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win

 

[Chorus]

           Am         Am/B  Am

But I set fire to the rain

            G           G/A  G

Watched it pour as I touched your face

          Dm

Well, it burned while I cried

 Dm                F        Am                  G

'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name

       Am         Am/B  Am

I set fire to the rain

            G           G/A  G

And I threw us into the flames

        Dm

When we fell, somethin' died

         Dm        F                 Am             G

'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time

 

[Bridge]

          F                C/E

Sometimes I wake up by the door

               Em                        G

That heart you caught must be waitin' for you

      F                     C/E

Even now when we're already over

         Em                        G

I can't help myself from looking for you

 

[Chorus]

       Am          Am/B  Am

I set fire to the rain

            G           G/A  G

Watched it pour as I touched your face

         Dm

Well, it burned while I cried

  Dm        F            Am                     G

'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name

       Am          Am/B  Am

I set fire to the rain

            G            G/A  G

And I threw us into the flames

        Dm

When we fell, somethin' died

         Dm        F            Am                  G

'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time

 

[Outro]

  Am     G

Oooh, oh no, oh

       Dm     Am  G

Let it burn, oh

I've willed...

Hey, now we won't be raped...

            Dsus2   Esus2   Dsus2   Csus2

Scared like that

G  D  Dsus4  G (2x)

And to love...

I willed...

Hey, now we won't be raped...

Em          A

We won't be scarred like that

We won't be scarred like that

Every Rose Has Its Thorn Chords by Poison

 

[Intro]

G   Cadd9   G   Cadd9

 

[Verse 1]

G                                  Cadd9

We both lie silently still, in the dead of the night.

             G                                Cadd9

Although we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside.

          G                   Cadd9

Was it something I said, or something I did,

         G                Cadd9

did my words not come out right?

          D                              C

Though I tried not to hurt you, though I tried, but I guess that's why they say

 

[Chorus]

G                   Cadd9

Every rose has its thorn.

           G                  Cadd9

Just like every night has its dawn.

           G       D             C       G

Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song.

 G                   C

Every rose has its thorn.

 

[Instrumental]

G   Cadd9   G   Cadd9

 

[Verse 2]

  G                                           Cadd9

I listen to our favorite song, playing on the radio.

          G                                   Cadd9

Hear the DJ say love's a game of easy come and   easy go.

       G             Cadd9         G               Cadd9

But I wonder, does he know, has he ever felt like this?

       D

And I know that you'd be here right now if I

C

  coulda let you know, somehow I guess

 

[Chorus]

G                   Cadd9

Every rose has its thorn.

           G                  Cadd9

Just like every night has its dawn.

           G      D             C       G

Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song.

 G                   C

Every rose has its thorn.

 

[Bridge]

Em                    D                C                  G

  Though it's been a while now, I can still feel so much pain.

Em                  D                      C

 Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals, but the scar, that scar remains

 

[Solo]

G    Cadd9  G   Cadd9

Em   D      C   G

Em   D      C   C

 

G    Cadd9  G   Cadd9

 

[Verse 3]

   G                                            Cadd9

I know I coulda saved our love that night if I'd     known what to say.

G                               Cadd9

  Instead of making love we both  made our separate ways.

     G                      Cadd9             G                       Cadd9

And now I hear you've found somebody new, and that I never meant that much to you.

    D                                    C

To hear that tears me up inside, and to see you cuts me like a knife, I guess

 

[Chorus]

G                   Cadd9

Every rose has its thorn.

           G                  Cadd9

Just like every night has its dawn.

             G     D             C       G

Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song.

 G                   C

Every rose has its thorn.
